rita told Chinese coverage site cnFrag:

"We do not have a sponsor for the team, we will just attend this IEM5 qualifier with an entertainment mentality"

In an interview after WEM 2009 then TyLoo leader alex compared GoodRifle's playing style to that of fnatic's AWPer dsn. rita was previously the in-game leader of TyLoo.raw and wNv.cn, though the team was more known for its freelancing style of play which allowed star player Savage to seemingly roam and pick his spots as he pleased.
